Might as well hop on… It seems everyone has been posting about “Life Lately” so I thought I’d hop on that train of thought or blogging. Granted most of those posts are about proms, graduations, and weddings! Mine is about lists, boxes, and those “Oh, sh*t” moments. Confused? Just to recap, Nigel and I sold …
Floral shoes, too! You know how some people love stripes or kimonos or denim? I seem to be that way about florals (though I think I would draw the line at floral denim). I think it’s in my DNA! I mean, my maiden name was Rose! I mentioned here I have these sandals in green, …
The second edition… Last month, I joined Michelle, of My Bijou Life, in a new blogging challenge and a link party. On the final Friday of each month, Michelle and I will be showcasing our adventures in print mixing. Michelle introduced the idea a couple of months ago. She wanted to venture outside her comfort …
And, it works! I have the absolute simplest Instagram hack for you! Do you ever struggle to put on a bracelet? You know, the ones with the lobster claw clasps? I always have, especially when I used to have my nails done. A few days ago, as I was scrolling through Instagram, I happened to …
We took a little trip… Nigel and I, being doubly vaccinated and boosted, took a little trip to Columbus, Ohio. This marked the third time I’ve been to the Franklin Park Conservatory and Nigel’s second. We went last fall and really enjoyed the seasonal outdoor displays (you can read about it here). Newfields has a …
But, no Johnny Depp! I haven’t written much about my faith, and this certainly isn’t going to be a post about it. I have been a Lutheran for about fifty years, but I was confirmed as a Methodist. None of that has much to do with this blog post except as an introduction to the …
Not mine anyway… My mom didn’t wear dresses as she got older. In fact, the last time I can remember her wearing a dress was for my youngest sister’s wedding in 1984! And, I just happen to have it as well as the one she wore to my wedding. I have no idea why I …
Scouting it out… Nigel and I have been considering moving house. Before moving to Brownsburg a few several years ago, we lived in the same house for almost 25 years. We built that one and had done many remodels and updates over the years. I loved that house, but we decided to move to be …
Only ten more days… Spring is just a few days away! I have to admit it’s not my favorite time of year. If you live in the Midwest as I do, Spring is very fickle. She shows up flirting and flouncing and then leaves you just as quickly! The other thing I dislike about Spring …
Or, am I? Daenel of Living Outside the Stacks posts the most stunning photos on Instagram as well as on her blog. If you’re not following her on either, do yourself a favor and find her! Last fall, she kept writing about Kantha Bae. I wasn’t exactly sure what that was, so I googled it …
